One thing I forgot though related to the profile...in their letter they demanded "10 million dollar" (not dollars). Hello? What detective who has ever talked to a black man wouldn't have alarm bells clanging away after reading that along with "word is bond." I mean I know Muhammad did his best to keep it slang free, but it was all there for professionals. What did they expect? "Word up" as an intro and "peace" as a sign out?
Of course the police wouldn't want to profile a certain race and save a few lives now would they?
Imagine Moose: "Obviously it could still be some violent militia guy like Eminem that's down with the street, chillin' with five percenters, dropping science and bustin' rhymes, so let's keep focused on whitey in his minivan."
